It would be great to have one place to browse through ACW pictures, so please post what you have. Both pre and post Cabot guns are welcome!

My small collection of customized LB Concept 8, customized S&W PC lightweight round-tail, plus Anomaly. All commanders.

The day has finally come! The Anomaly came to the range with me and I ran five different kinds of ammo through it, including a couple of mags of JHP (Gold Dots and HST), in four kinds of mags. It’s got that Alchemy feeding cycle that just feels like bullets magically align with the chamber and slide in like they were dipped in butta .



Shot her side by side with the stainless sibling



While the lightweight two-tone sibling was in the holster. It did come out for a family pic.

Got to shoot the Anomaly mentioned above. It’s a freaking tack driver. Both ACW’s just seem to have a hatred for the bullseye.

Guess what...my ego never caught up so I'm still pretty reasonable. I am getting crabbier with each passing day though. One day, I'll be able to yell at you like Les but until that day comes, everyone is safe. :)

In addition to the all the fine pics of all the fine work Rob has done I want to add that he was excellent to deal with before, during and after the build. It was (and is) the only gun I’ve ever had customized and the last one I’d ever part with. I wish I had him do a couple more things to it before he got all rich and famous! (I probably can’t afford him anymore!)

I received this teasing photo from ACW, I asked if I could share so here goes.
No it is not mine,
Now I am really torn was between a build or a second prime and now this. Not sure how far out availability is?

cool roll mark!
Mark Anderson, how do you like that diamond checkering? I wonder why Rob did not use that on his new Alchemy line.

I love it. Not exactly sure what the LPI is, but it's absolutely perfect for grip and shooting. I bought the PM7 in 2007 and at that time there was nothing on the front or rear. Today it is marketed as the PM-45 and looks like DW is checkering both sides, but it doesn't look anything near the quality of the diamond checkering Rob did.

I believe that it’s called Cord checkering, after the auto maker. I have a old MSH with the same type checkering with landyard loop. My buddy has the same on his 60’s ball gun but his landyard loop is not installed.

George from gunslingers is shipping this to me, the new custom carry. I live in WA, so once it arrives and I do paperwork, I still have to wait 10 business days. I can’t wait for this beauty. Btw, George has great customer service.

I made a thread on this one, but wanted to ad mine here also. I wanted an Alchemy right after I joined and looked through everyone’s pictures here.

Here’s a Colt commander Rob did, one of the last do leave his IL shop. It was cerakoted by Dave at EVO with a new front sight.

And a hard chrome Colt is no longer in my possession but was absolutely awesome.

Just announced on Alchemy Instagram, after the first of the yr 38 Super will be produced. 38 Super Custom Carry will be a sweet ccw I think.
